The safari now takes in the Eastward through the Caprivi strip, with the last night in Namibia spent on the banks of the Kavango River in the vicinity of Rundu.

Upon your arrival at Windhoek International Airport, you will be met by your safari guide from where we will commence to the Namib Naukluft Park (approximately 4/5 hours drive), briefly passing through Namibia’s Capital: Windhoek.

You will spend the next two nights in the famous Sossusvlei/Sesriem area, home to some of the highest sand-dunes in the world.
An early start on this second day will reveal the beauty of this area as the light unfolds offering magnificent photographic opportunities.

Sesriem, the gateway to Sossusvlei, is named after a 30m deep canyon carved through layers of conglomerate by the Tsauchab River. The name is translated as “six thongs”–a reference to the fact that pioneer farmers had to use six ox thongs to lower buckets to the pools in the narrow canyon.
